THE STJXDAY OREGONTAN, PORTLAND, SEPTEMBER 14, 1919. TON CONSIDER COLONY we go Equipment of Airplanes and Arms Is Proposed. SOLDIERS ASKED TO JOIN General Critchley and Native Land owner Are Rcported to Be at Head of Scheme. (Copyright t5 tti. Nw York World. Pub ii?hed by ArranfemenL) LONDON. Sept. 13. (Special Cbl.) Mexican officials her are much con cerned over a proposed scheme of colo nisation in their country by a British expedition at whose head is Brifradier General A. C Critchley of the royal air force and a Mexican named Del Rios, both of whom arrived from New York on the last eastward trip of the Aqul tania. The scheme has been conspicuously featured in the British press. It is aid that General Critchley has been tryinr to get British officers as well as men from the ranks to join him. It was learned today by the World corre spondent that the Mexican authorities have asked Scotland Tard to look into the affair. There have been applicants for enrollment in the venture. General Critchley promises to ex plain his plans next week to those who wish to fro with him. It is said the party will be equipped with airplanes and arms. Land CesifiseatlaB Reported. Tel Rios. on whose estate the colo nisation is projected, is reported to be the son of one of the largest land owners in Mexico. The story sroes that some time aro President Carrania con fiscated 1000 acres of the estate be cause it had been undeveloped. In order to enter Mexico legally the expedition must have Mexican vises, and American vises also will be re quired should the party pass through the United States. The World corre spondent hears that the American au thorities have been closely watching developments. A press account of a recent meeting, at which the allurements of the project were set forth, says the speakers s. eerted that arms and ammunition would be taken along in quantities be cause the big Del Rios estate abounds In game. Incidentally it was disclosed that occasional fights might be neces sary with rebel bands. Mexican offiicals say the consent of the Carranxa government must be had to take arms and ammunition into the country, and that the government is prepared to protect all properties for which protection is sought. The World correspondent has been unable to locate General Critchley. but is Informed by one of his friends who Is conversant with the soheme that it would be foolhardy for Englishmen to so into Mexico unarmed. Initial Fee of SIOOO Required, Those who Join, according to reports. must be prepared to pay an initial fee of 11000 toward mess and transport expenses. The colony will be run like a club. At the end ef a year, if al Ing the services of the state associa tion in raising Oregon's quota. Mr. Cookingham Immediately accepted the offer and turned the entire campaign over t the Elks, saying that with the vcn X.1KI sponsor jor mo unve, uc I waa confident nf Irs HfirrpRH. The plan is to organize the Elks throughout the state into an active sales agency, using the banks for col lection of pledge cards. Every organ isation, and every man, woman 'and child in the state will be asked to pur chase as many war savings stamps as possible as an investment. In addition to thrift stamps and certificates, the government is offering treasury saving certificates in denominations of $100 and 11000. Oregon's quota for 1919 is $8,500,000, of which nearly $2,000,000 has been sub scribed. War savings societies and schools probably will subscribe an ad ditional $2,000,000, leaving approxi mately $5,000,000 in stamps and certifi cates to be disposed of by the Elks.

General Critchley was reported few days ago as saying that permission to take in arms had already been ob tained from the Mexican government. This is news to Mexican officials here. General Critchley is further quoted as saying: "The country is full of possibilities, with a magnificent climate and every chance for men to make good. If you've got anything in you, you can make good, but it's no cotton-wool job." ELKS UNDERTAKE BIS JOB STATE ASSOCIATION TO COX DCCT. WAR STAMP DRIVE. Lodgemen of State to Be Organized Into Active Sales Agency About $5,000,000 to Be Raised. The war savings stamp campaign ln Oregon has been placed in the hands of the Oregon State Elks association, an organisation with 15,000 members. This announcement was made jointly yester day by Edward Cookingham, director (or the war loan organization in Ore gon, and Harry G. Allen, president of the Oregon btate i.lks association. Borne weeks ago the attention of Mr. Allen was called to the fact that the government has been forced to re trench to such an extent that It would be impossible to maintain an organiza tion sufficient to handle this campaign. In conformity with a resolution adopted by the grand lodge of Elks at Atlantic City last July, in which the active support of Elks in the govern ment thrift stamp campaign was pledged.

James Hamilton Lewis, former senator from Illinois and once a member of congress from Washing ton state, predicts the most chaotic conditions among political parties next year. The democratic party to which he belongs, he asserts, will split on the league of nations next year while the republicans, in his opinion, win oe held together only by the desire to return to power. His prediction follows a tour of the middle west where he spoke in behalf of the peaee treaty. "The west," he eaid, "is one camp of insurgency against everything that was heretofore a political institution. The west is in revolt against extortionate prices for living. It has no fixed af filiation with any political party. The iTt elect the next presidential personal vote for the man. no concrete party organ l- party en old party lines. Everything of the past is broken up. Democratic Split Forecast. "For the democrats I prophesy that If the party does not soon have a har monious union In congress there will be nothing to hold- them together in politics. They will have two candi dates for president in 1920. It will be split en the peaee treaty and the league, as the democracy did at the 189 convention on the gold and silver issue and as the republicans did in 1912. The republicans will split in sen timent on the league and treaty, but the desire to get- back in power will hold them together in politics. They remember the experiences of 1912. "The democrats are confronted with the Irish as an intelligent and militant force of the party, in large numbers opposed to features of the treaty and the league. Tbe German democrats and certain of the Italian and foreign na tionality democrats likewise are op posed to the league because of tbe terms put on their countries. "To these must be added the great number of citizens of the party long educated to our policy of national iso lation. One wing of our party will adept the Andrew Jackson policy. President Jackson, hating Spain over r lorida, cursing France over Louisiana and breathing vengeance on all Eng land following his battle at New Or leans, laid down the policy of 'Stay In your own yard.' Hearst Picked to Lead Wing. "This Jackson wing will be led by W. R. Hearst and his publications, aided by former Senator Bailey of Terffes and Henry Watterson for the south, and democrats of the west, such as Senator Reed of Missouri and Colonel George Harvey of New Tork, and others. Those for the Wilson poli cies will remain as the concrete party organization, asserting that the treaty and peace league should be ratified and enforced to the letter to keep faith with the purposes for which tbe United States entered the war. "The speeches of the president in the west have made a great impression, but the people would have welcomed some sentiments from the president on pre venting further robbery in prices of living and would -have welcomed i surances of punishment." Two Candidates Seen. Senator Lewis was more candid than William Jennings Bryan, who on recent visit to Washington insisted on confining his discussions to republican possibilities. Of course, Mr. Bryan would not . mention any of the repub lean possibilities of whom the coun try has heard. He could see but two candidates- for the republican nomina tion General Charles G. Dawes of Chi cago, former controller of the currency under McKlnley, and Governor Sproul of Pennsylvania. He pad a high tribute to the char acter of General Pawes, who has oeen a member of General Pershing's staff in the American expeditionary forces, and is said to be the Pershing choice for the presidency. Of Governor Sproul ho said: "He is progressive enough to satisfy the west and not too progres sive to displease the east." SOLDIERS TO BE QUESTS M'MIXXTILLE PLAX3 "WELCOME H03EE" CELEBRATION.
